Dear All:
As some of you may know, I have been dealing with Bleeding Ulcerative Colitis since before Christmas and my judgement was becoming impared by the frustration of this ailment and not seeing any "Light at the end of the tunnel".
After a visit to the Emergency Room where they did nothing for me and a number of converstaions with my GI Doctor, I was getting very frustrated and my lack of healing/ remission. The only thing the ER visit revealed is I have a small hernia next to one that was repaired with mesh back in 2000. This may very well be what has triggered the episode of UC I am experiencing now. I had managed to get a dose of Skyrizi in me but that didn't seem to be of much help. I am on budesonide with limited results. The Dr wanted to put me on Prednisone but, I cannot take that due to resulting Cardiac reactions.
Finally, this past Friday on the way to work and praying at the same time. I had asked for healing, again. Only this time I prayed something like this. Lord, as surely as you healed Prater Gaius's son from a distance, would you please heal me from where ever you are in the Universe?
I repeated this request along with my evening prayers before supper which is a daily event.
Here is is two days later and it seems as if I no longer have discernable blood in my waste/ There is still some mucus and I know I am not totally out of the woods. However, I feel that my request has been heard and acted on.
TGBTG
AGAIN, don't ever try to tell me the power of Prayer doesn't work. I know, in my heart, it does.
God Bless,
Terry
